Lowe Alpine Summit Attack 30 Hyperlite Pack - 1800cu in

Item #LWA0035 | 12 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Nice day outing pack

By Ranked #160 - Daypacks - Technical September 30, 2008

This is a comfortable, close-carrying pack for a day out climbing, hiking, etc. Light fabric to keep the weight down, good shaping for a close fit, clever attachments for ice tools or trekking poles. No crampon attachment; I added some stretch cord to the back using the sewn-in tabs, and this works just fine. The foam back pad is too small and too thin (my opinion) for a bivy pad, but does shape the back nicely and protects my back from getting jabbed by pointy things in the pack. Top liid is a little small. This fits with the overall streamlined lines of the pack, but I prefer more space for organizing stuff for ready access. Support is what you'd expect from a light frameless pack, but shoulder straps are nicely padded without getting bulky. I like it.
